    The bulk of those “Charitable” contributions are “voluntary” contributions to the mormon church. Members must contribute 10% of their income plus a little extra just because in order to hold positions of leadership in the church, get married attend cult weddings and most importantly not go to hell.

    The mormon church uses less than 1% of their funds for humanitarian needs. The other 99% is used to expand the hundreds of billions in hoarded wealth.
